overpampered

Spoiled beyond reason

Overpampered describes someone who has received excessive indulgence, comfort, or attention—typically to the point of becoming spoiled or unable to handle ordinary difficulties.

The word implies criticism: an overpampered child expects constant accommodation, an overpampered pet refuses regular food.

The overpampered executive couldn't function without his assistant handling every detail.
